Anybody have a price on this stuff when purchased from a dealer?

 

be a little more specific.

 

Ive heard hondabond is made by the same company that makes ultra grey. I have always used ultra grey and ultra black on all of my projects. Works just the same. You can get the stuff from any auto parts store too for about 6 bucks a tube.

 

thanks, i got a cam seal that needs to be installed.

 

Hondabond is like 12 bucks from the dealer but and gasket sealer will do the trick as long as its felxiable.

I've heard, that permatex™ and Hondabond™ are the same exact thing but I've compared them and they are slightly different in colors so I doubt that they are manufactured by the same co. Each work well. I like Hondabond™, but Permatex ultra gray works just as well. HB = $12-16 a tube, Ptex = 4.99-6.99 a tube.

 

anything but permatex BLUE.
ultra grey is theb st other than GMS.
gms is general motors sealer. iti s hands down the best.
IMO. he hee. but it holds up really well.

 

you're supposed to put sealant on the cam seal? whoops. i dont see any oil leaking...

Correct. Just spend the $3 or $4 on the Ultra Grey sealant (grey color) and use that... same **** as buying Hondabond from the dealership, only at a fraction of the price.

 

Hondabond and UltraGrey are different.......

Hondabond cleans up easy with Autozone carb cleaner, Tolulene based.
Ultragrey is unaffected by the carb cleaner.

I use the Ultragrey on all the tranny I rebuild, never a leak.

 

hondabond is cheaper at motorcycle shops for the same stuff.

Are you talking about Yamabond (what Yamaha sells)? I just use ultragray (aka #999). I like honda and all, but I ain't payin' the H premium for their oils/sealants.

 

can the ultra grey also be used on the valve cover gasket?

 

I use it on the corners of the cam caps to keep those dry, but otherwise you shouldnt need it

 

I use Permatex Ultra Copper or Permatex The Right Stuff.

The right stuff is more adhesive and works for oilpan gaskets and other items where you need to make a liquid gasket.

not really, it is advised to put it on the corners of the caps. if you put it on the seal, it will pop out. i put them in with grease on the lip, and dry on the outside.
